A Rant On Bosses: Final Fantasy & Shank
13 hours 48 mins ago
You've heard the rumors that Sony could possibly be buying Rockstar, but is it all lies? CVG has their given reasons why it would be a bad move for Rockstar and Sony. Sony is actually losing money, so why would they spend a huge amount of cash just to buy out Rockstar? It wouldn't be good for Rockstar to sell themselves since they're still going multi-platform, but if Sony buys them, they'll be concentrated on one console. Overall, nothing makes sense on why Sony would buy Rockstar.
It sounds like another example of a fan's wet dream to us. Unless there's a surprise outbreak of mad cow disease in its offices, we could never see Take Two flogging off its prize asset. On top of that, SCEI is still posting losses and cutting back on expenditure so we can't see it spending what would be a hugely exaggerated amount on Rockstar.
It'd be bad news for Rockstar as well, which'd be going from its long-running strategy of multi-platform development to limiting itself to just one console. So in summary; it wouldn't make sense for Sony, it wouldn't make sense for Take Two and it wouldn't make sense for Rockstar.

Also, why does this article says it's bad news for rockstar? Getting bought by a company is bad? A company is going to pay them millions of dollars to make games that don't even necessarily have to be good.
